Toontrack has announced availability of the latest version of its EZdrummer drum software for Windows and Mac.
Reinventing the role a piece of drum production software can play in a songwriting context, EZdrummer 3 gives you the creative reins to a comprehensive set of easy-to-use features that allow you to create full-fledged drum tracks without ever leaving the software.
“Even though EZdrummer 3 is new from top to bottom, we have continued to build on the strengths that have made its predecessors the indisputable go-tos for songwriters around the world: ease of use, creative features and, of course, great sounds,” comments Erik Phersson, Toontrack’s Head of Software Development.
Got a riff? Let the Bandmate come up with a drum groove on the fly. Hear a rhythm in your head? Use Tap2Find and let EZdrummer 3 list its best matches. Got your groove down? Turn it into a full song using the Song Creator. The options are endless.
Of course, at the heart of the program is the all-new sound library featuring seven kits recorded by Grammy Award-winning producer/engineer/mixer Michael Ilbert (Coldplay, Adele, The Weeknd) at the world-famous Hansa Studios in Berlin, Germany. The program also includes a new and massive collection MIDI drum grooves and fills for a wide range of styles.
